Press Release Summary: New Facebook application allows users to review restaurants,
share favorites, and challenge others taste in food to an exciting game

Press Release Body: October 30, 2007-Travature.com, a leading Travel 2.0 startup,
has announced the official release of their first Facebook application, Restaurant
Wars. The app is part function and part fun. It offers all of the advantages of
user driven restaurant reviews, while at the same time, allows you to compete with
your friends, to see how your tastes in restaurants stack up to the ratings given by
other Facebook and Travature.com users.

\"Restaurant Wars is a perfect fit into the collection of Facebook applications.
Millions of Facebook users will now be able to keep track of where their friends are
eating, add reviews to hundreds of thousands of restaurants around the world, and
best of all challenge their friend\'s taste in food,\" says head application developer
Flora Ng. \"The social networking concept is such a great way for us to connect our
likes and dislikes on personal level, and the recently launched Facebook application
platform is an ideal delivery mechanism for us to help users share food preferences
in new and exciting ways."

Restaurant Wars is the first of a series of Facebook and iPhone applications that
Travature plans to release before the end of 2008 to increase awareness of their
online travel portal Travature.com, a unique integrator of highly relevant travel
information.
